The Myco-Alarm is an item which becomes available in a pack of 5 via the 
MycoAlarm research project.
When dropped in a room's shelf, it will display a Public "BRIIIIING!" alert in the room log if a 
Mush performs certain Mush actions. It will work if hidden, but will have no effect if held in a character's inventory.
As of Episode IV, the Myco-Alarm detects the following actions: Infect, 
Fungal Kitchen, 
Trapper, 
Radio Pirate, 
Nightmarish, 
Bacteriophiliac and 
Transfer, as well as Infectious Cuddles (on 
Schrödinger) and the act of mutating into a 
Berzerker. It does NOT go off if you Extract a spore or contaminate your target via doing the thing.
Demoralize attack.Usage
The main use of the Myco-Alarm is to protect commonly used rooms that did not have a camera installed, such as the Lab, Medlab, Nexus, Icarus Bay and Patroller bays, discouraging Mush from spreading their spores there. In addition, hiding surplus Myco-Alarms in different places and moving them around (usually a job for 
Chun and/or 
Eleesha) is a great way to make the Mush scared to use their skills, or catch them outright.
The Pheromodem research reduces the necessity for Myco-Alarms, as the Mush communication channel will immediately display any sporing that occurs, and the obscured names might be guessed by the time it happened.
